JVM Language Summit — Logistics

Location

Check-in: Please check in at the Clock
Tower reception area, at the end of Palm Drive. Badges and
escorts to the summit location (the Stanford Conference Room,
SCA05-1116) will be available starting at 8:30 AM.

Parking: There is some parking in front of the Clock Tower. There is plenty more on the south
corner of the Sun campus, between Leonard Stocking Dr.and Network
Circle, with a short walk up Palm Dr. to the Clock Tower.

Transportation

Airports: Sun is approximately 6 miles from the San Jose
International Airport (SJC), and 32 miles from the San Francisco
International Airport (SFO).

Several of the hotels listed have shuttles that can get you at
the airport and get you to and from campus, so it should be
cost-effective to do without a rental car if you prefer.

For those of you unfamiliar with the Bay Area, traffic can be
bad, especially at standard commute hours. If you are trying to get
back to the airport on Friday evening, please allow additional
time.

Rapid Transit: For those arriving at SFO who prefer not
to rent a car, the BART rapid transit system has a stop at the
airport. Take BART one stop to Millbrae, and change at Millbrae to
the Caltrain commuter rail, which you can take to the Santa Clara
station. Sun is 4 miles from the Santa Clara station.

Lodging

Note: The following information is based on recent
conversations with the hotels, but details are certain to change
over time.

Communications

Participants are invited to use the JVM Language Summit wiki to

instructions there for logging in. The wiki has a logistics page for
making community notes about travel arrangements.
